  • Raise Minimum Wage in Texas!
    I wanted to start this petition because I myself grew up in poverty and at 30 am still trying to crawl out. I am now a store manager of a retail shop owned by a corporation and see first hand how many people struggle to make ends meet with multiple part time jobs. If we could raise the minimum wage even higher than $10.10 it would help so many families actually thrive instead of just struggling to survive.

  • Lets Get Paid Sick Days For All Working New Yorkers
    It is time that all working men, and women get what workers in 136 countries in the industrial world already have; paid sick days. Workers should not be in fear for their jobs or lost wages if they call in sick.

  • Raise Florida Minimum Wage
    Because Rick Scott and the members or our government houses are corrupt officials and need to be held accountable for their betrayal of their constituency. No longer may they make their fortunes off of the backs of the citizens of this State.

  • Tell the Alaska legislature to raise the minimum wage!
    The cost of living in Alaska has increased so drastically since the recession that families can no longer make ends meet. I know many families who have had to move to the lower 48 because they could no longer afford to live in their home state. Our state's current minimum wage is $7.75. Join me in calling on our state legislature to raise the minimum wage to $10.50.

  • Tell Nevada State Legislature to raise the minimum wage!
    The current minimum wage of $8.25 an hour is NOT enough to live on. A person working 40 hours a week (and it is rare to find companies hiring full time these days) for $8.25 an hour will only make $1320 a month BEFORE taxes. This is NOT enough for a single person to live on, let alone someone supporting a family. When companies do not have to pay our workers enough to live on, taxpayers take up the burden when these hard working people are forced to still turn to welfare assistance to make ends meet. Hard-working people deserve the dignity of earning a living wage.
